Phoenix Suns

The Phoenix Suns entered the National Basketball Association in 1968 with the Milwaukee Bucks. In their early years, they gained modest success and even made it to the 1976 NBA Finals against the eventual champion Boston Celtics. In the late 80s until the early 2000s, the Suns made the playoffs for 13 straight years including an NBA Finals berth in 1993. During this run, the team had players such as Kevin Johnson, Charles Barkley, Tom Chambers, Dan Majerle, Jason Kidd and Steve Nash.

In 2004, the Suns experienced a resurgence when Nash teamed up with Amare Stoudemire, Joe Johnson and Shawn Marion to form a high-octane offense that brought four consecutive Pacific Division titles. However, none of those guys are still with the team but basketball is still as hot as the sun in Phoenix. Players like Marcin Gortat, Luis Scola, Goran Dragic, Channing Frye and Michael Beasley will try to scorch their opponents en route to going back to the playoffs.
